Apple invites Hollywood to Silicon Valley in TV push
REUTERS, San Francisco/Los Angeles
APPLE Inc is expected to finally lift the curtain on Monday on a secretive, years-long effort to build a television and movie offering designed to compete with big media companies and boost digital services revenue as iPhone sales taper.
"It's show time" is how the iPhone maker billed the affair slated for the Steve fobs Theater at its Cupertino, California, headquarters. Analysts believe it will be the technology company's first splashy launch event that will not feature new gadgets or hardware.
Hollywood celebrities are likely to trek to Apple's Cupertino home to greet the
debut of a revamped Apple TV digital storefront. Apple has commissioned programming from A-list names such as Jennifer Aniston, Reese Witherspoon, Oprah Winfrey and Steven Spielberg.
The Apple original shows are expected to be offered alongside the option to subscribe to content from Viacom Inc and Lions Cate Entertainment Corp's Statz, among others, sources have told Reuters.
Apple will join a crowded field where rivals such as Amazon.com's Prime Video and Netflix Inc have spent heavily to capture viewer attention and dollars with award-winning series and films.
The big tech war for viewers ignited a consolidation wave among traditional media companies preparing to join the fray. Walt Disney Co, which bought 21st Century Fox, and AT&T Inc, which purchased Time Warner Inc, plan to launch or test new streaming video services this year.
Apple's jump into original entertainment signals a fundamental shift in its business. Sales of hardware money-makers the iPhone, iPad and Mac were either stagnant or flat in its most recent fiscal year. Without another category-defining new gadget announced to the public
Apple is expected to rely on selling subscriptions and services like video, music and hardware insurance.
Revenue from its "services" segment -which includes the App Store, iCloud and content businesses such as Apple Music -grew 24 percent to $37.1 billion in fiscal 2018. The services segment accounted for only about 14 percent of Apple's overall $265.6 billion in revenue, but investors have pinned their hopes for growth on the segment.
Apple's TV push has been cloaked in mystery. Even producers of Apple's shows are unsure about many of the details about when and how audiences will be able to see their work.
On Monday, Apple also is expected to unveil an Apple News subscription option
featuring content from major publishers and a new credit card with Goldman Sachs to bolster Apple Pay.
While Apple plans to spend $2 billion on original shows this year and has hired Hollywood veterans to oversee them, it is unlikely to take on Netflix or Amazon directly by including libraries of older shows. Instead, its model is expected to more closely resemble the App Store, offering paid subscriptions to other media companies' programming and keeping a cut of sales.
Ahead of the launch, Apple negotiated deals that would let Apple bundle and sell networks at a discount, replicating a business model from the cable TV industry, one source familiar with the matter said.
Apple's goal, other sources have told Reuters, is to bring together television shows in one place to make it easier to find, buy and watch them. Apple has worked to make it easier to watch the shows on traditional television from manufacturers such as Sony Corp, VIZIO Inc LG Electronics Inc and Samsung Electronics Co Ltd.
Apple's pitch to Hollywood is that it has the potential to reach hundreds of millions of viewers.
